Most people choose to create their Japanese koi ponds out of natural stone. In truth, it does make sense because traditional Japanese koi ponds are actually made out of natural stone. However, times are changing fast, along with technology. An increasing number of people are choosing concrete pond construction over regular natural stone. Here is a closer look at concrete pond construction.

Why Choose Concrete? When it comes to concrete ponds, one of the biggest benefits is the price. In comparison to natural stone, concrete is much cheaper. This is a definite bonus if you are building large koi ponds or even large koi water gardens. You can use the money you save in construction to purchase better pond equipment or even more koi.

Another reason why people choose concrete koi ponds over natural stone is that they are easier to maintain. When there is crack in the natural stone setting of your pond, chances are that you could have to soon battle an algae infestation. This is because it is not easy to remove the algae from that split area. To combat it, you will have to replace the stone entirely and this is rather costly.

If the koi pond was made out of concrete, and the same problem occurred, the problem would be easier (and cheaper) to fix. All you would have to do is clean the crack area and fill it up with cement again. You do not have to remove and replace the entire area in order to just fix one small problem.
